erin mcpike is in wichita where it's still coming down very hard there, isn't it, erin. >> reporter: yes, it sure is. right behind me we just saw a snow plow go by for the third time in the past hour but the road is already covered again. we also have a handy ruler to check throughout the day. it's 4 inches now and two hours ago there was nothing. so it is about 2 inches an hour and we'll see a lot more throughout the day. 9 inches at least, maybe up to 18. it's going to be a little higher in topeka where they're expecting 17 or 18 inches. as you mentioned, the governor, sam brownback, has shut down most of the state today. he's saying if you want to play in the snow, basically go nuts, but stay off the roads because the roads are pretty bad here. now, we have heard that farmers are welcoming this storm because it's been a drought for a couple of years here, so, you know, we want to see some heavy snow to help ease those drought conditions. >> and that is the silver lining if there is one, erin mcpike, you're absolutely right. you can play, get out of school today. this storm system

. >> you know, erin mclaughlin joins us from london. what does this discovery of richard iii mean? >> hi, christine. historians really think this is an opportunity to rewrite history. these are the culmination of months of detailed analysis, including dna testing, radio carbon testing, environmental sampling, and not only tell us beyond any sort of reasonable doubt that this was, in fact, richard iii, but they begin to paint a picture as to who this man was. he was 32 years old when he died. he was suffered from severe scoliosis or curvature of the spine, died at the battle of bosworth due to blunt trauma at the back of his head. his naked body strewn to a horse, brought to a grave and hastily dug and thrown in there without a shroud or coffin. we hope this will paint a different picture of richard iii, one that challenges shakespeare's portrayal of a i'll ha vile and evil monster. >> you hear of this story at the tower of london, how he killed his nephews, the little boys. and this was a medieval time when these were the things that dukes and kings did to each other. it's very gru
